An Integrative Medicine Guide to a Higher State of Well-being
Description
The Spirit of Animal Healing is the follow up to Dr. Marty Goldstein’s bestselling book on holistic veterinary medicine, The Nature of Animal Healing.
It is chock full of the very latest integrative medical knowledge (which combines conventional therapies with complementary and alternative medicine). Coupled with the vast amount of specialized expertise and learning Dr. Marty has gained from his own practice over the past 45 years, the book takes readers on a journey to the leading edge of integrative veterinary understanding to achieve greater insight into the minds and bodies of their animal companions.
However, this book is not simply a new edition of Dr. Marty’s first book with some refreshed content. It is a completely new book in which Dr. Marty turns the traditional approach to animal care upside down. The Spirit of Animal Healing provides readers with the most up to-date tools and knowledge they need to keep their dogs and cats healthy and prevent disease from occurring in the first place, instead of just treating their animal companions when they are sick.
Topics covered include:
*Nutrition and supplements
*Integrative remedies and harmful treatments
*Cutting edge therapies
*The truth about vaccinations
*The latest in cancer treatments
*The spiritual nature of animals
*True, mind-blowing cases from over the years
-And much more!

My Thoughts
Though I haven’t read Dr. Goldstein’s first book, The Nature of Animal Healing: The Definitive Holistic Medicine Guide to Caring for Your Dog and Cat, I can already say that I’m glad there was a follow-up book. The Spirit of Animal Healing is bound to have lots of new information, since the science of medicine is advancing daily, as well as holistic procedures.
The book covers so many interesting things. To be honest, I felt that some information was easy to comprehend, while other things were somewhat over my head. But I still enjoyed reading and learning.
I’m always a fan of alternative treatments and ways to possibly prevent disease. When Goldstein talked about acupuncture and dog food, I quickly perked up. Both very interesting topics.
I wish more Vets were trained in holistic medicine and that as pet owners we had more information available regarding healthy food for dogs. Marty Goldstein addressed so many topics in a way that the subject never felt dry. I found myself scurrying through the chapters with great interest.
My appreciation to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Essentials for an ARC and the ability to post my opinion.

I LOVE holistic alternative ways of doing things! I wanted to be a Doctor or Vet that specialized in it growing up! Did you know that there are Animal Chiropractors too?
